After leaving my father and keeping my son, I built my own wealthy family, and my ex-husband's

Ming Changfu has a drinking problem.

Every time he drinks, he gets very irritable, acts crazy, and bosses around.

In the kitchen, Mingyun's mother, Zhou Xiu, heard the noise and quickly came out. She rubbed the apron around her waist, carefully went around to the balcony, pushed Mei Yingxue into a bedroom in a wheelchair, and gently closed the door.

"Kneel down!" Ming Changfu sat on the sofa, his face flushed and neck bulging as he pointed at Ming Yun and cursed, "What's wrong with you? You've grown too big for your britches, no longer listening to me?"

Mingyun clenched her fists tightly.

Then he took a cushion from the sofa, put it on the floor, and knelt down.

"Alright, now organize your thoughts before you speak to your old man again." Ming Changfu put his feet up on the coffee table and shouted into the bedroom, "Wife, bring me another bottle of wine!"

Zhou Xiu immediately came out, took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, and handed it to Ming Changfu with both hands.

Ming Changfu frowned slightly and beckoned to her with his finger.

Zhou Xiu was a little flustered, but still moved closer.

Snapped!

Ming Changfu slapped her across the face. "How many times have I told you, beer tastes best when it's perfectly chilled! You gave me something lukewarm, like horse piss!"

Zhou Xiu didn't dare cover her face and kept saying, "Honey, I'm sorry. I was busy chopping vegetables in the kitchen and didn't put the new beer in in time."

"Forget it, get lost."

Ming Changfu waved his hand.

Zhou Xiu glanced at her daughter kneeling on the ground, hesitated, then lowered her head, wiped away her tears, and went to the bedroom.

Mingyun felt a surge of anger.

From as far back as she can remember, she was raised by her grandmother in the countryside.

Later, he went to high school in the county town, and it wasn't until he was seventeen and was admitted to Binhan University that he moved to the city to live with his parents and younger brother.

Before her younger brother was born, her parents treated her quite well when she was young.

Even though working in the city is hard, he will try his best to take time to go back to the countryside to be with her and buy her food and clothes.

When she was six years old, her younger brother was born, and her father completely ignored her, although her mother would still secretly care about her.

When she started living with her parents and younger brother at the age of seventeen, she discovered that her father was an alcoholic and abusive, and her mother had a weak personality.

I don't know how many times my mother was beaten by my father to the point of being hospitalized.

Mingyun was powerless to do anything but advise her mother to get a divorce.

But Mom absolutely refused, not even to separate, saying she couldn't let the family fall apart.

Even now, despite Mingyun's hard work and improved family conditions, her father remains incorrigible.

For her grandmother's sake, Mingyun has been enduring this to this day.

"Dad..." Mingyun suppressed her anger, trying to keep her tone calm as she spoke slowly.

"Although Grandma's condition has stabilized, she needs to take medication and recuperate for a long time, and she has difficulty moving around and needs constant care. Placing her in that nursing home is the most suitable option for me. The staff there are very responsible, the nurses are very attentive, and I visit her every few days."

"We don't need your money, and we don't need your effort or time..."

"I really don't understand why we had to bring Grandma here."

Mingyun had already put it very tactfully.

If I remember correctly, in the ten years since my grandmother was hospitalized and then transferred to a nursing home, my parents and brother have only visited her a handful of times.

Not to mention other aspects.

She didn't believe her father could take full responsibility after bringing her grandmother back.

Ming Changfu took a sip of beer, smacked his lips, and said, "It's really not good for a son to put his old mother in a nursing home. People back home are gossiping about it, saying I'm unfilial."

Mingyun sneered inwardly.

Are you saying I'm unfilial because my grandmother lives in a nursing home?

"Just because of this?" Mingyun said deliberately. "Dad, tell me who's gossiping, and I'll go back and tear their mouths apart."

Ming Changfu looked a little embarrassed, then changed his tune, saying, "Actually, I'm doing this for your own good."

"For my own good?" Mingyun looked completely unconvinced.

Ming Changfu tapped his fingers on the coffee table, striking a pose that suggested he was commanding the world.

"Daughter, you pay that high-end sanatorium 50,000 yuan every month, which is 600,000 yuan a year! The sanatorium just takes care of you and provides some treatment, it's not difficult at all. This money is not worth it."

"Taking care of your grandma and giving her her medication every day is child's play for me."

"So Dad has decided to save you money!"

Mingyun wouldn't believe this nonsense.

To save her money?

What a joke.

Six years ago, she married Qin Pinsen right after graduating from university. Although the Qin family did not hold a wedding, they gave a dowry of five million yuan, plus the house where her parents now live, which was worth more than three million yuan at the time and has now doubled in value.

There are also two cars worth around one million.

The bride price, the house, and the car were all kept by Ming Changfu, and he didn't give Ming Yun a single penny.

About three years ago, Ming Changfu said that the investment had failed and the five million yuan had gone down the drain, so he started asking Ming Yun for living expenses.

Mingyun has lost count of how much she has spent on her family over the years.

If it weren't for the Qin family giving her a million-yuan household allowance every year, which could offset her son's million-yuan medical expenses each year, she wouldn't be able to cover her family's expenses even if she sold herself.

Now, the overall situation is beginning to stabilize.

But the more she earned, the more her parents and brother spent, and she couldn't save any money at all.

"Dad, do you mean you're going to save me 50,000 yuan every month?" Mingyun wasn't quite sure what her father was planning, so she followed up with the question.

Ming Changfu grinned and said:

"It won't save that much. Taking care of your grandma takes time and money, so I won't be able to work anymore. You just need to give me... 45,000 yuan a month. That way, you'll save 5,000 yuan a month!"

Mingyun: "Heh..."

People can actually laugh out loud when they're speechless.

Her father's abacus beads hit her face.

"It's settled then!" Ming Changfu waved his hand. "Get up and hurry up and cook. Your brother will be home soon."

Mingyun silently got up and went to the bedroom, where she saw her mother sitting on the edge of the bed, sighing.

"Mom, I want to talk to Grandma alone."

"Okay..." Zhou Xiu wiped away her tears and stood up. "Daughter, don't be angry with your father. That's just his personality. No matter what, he's still your father."

Mingyun gave a blank "hmm".

Zhou Xiu sighed and went out.

Mingyun sat down next to Mei Yingxue. "Grandma... I really have too many things to deal with right now, but once one of the most important issues is resolved, I will take you away from here."

Leave this place and get rid of Ming Changfu completely.

In the future, I will live with my mother, my own children, and my grandmother, so that she can enjoy the happiness of family life.

"Leave...leave..." Mei Yingxue murmured repeatedly, her lips trembling and wrinkled.

"Grandma, what's wrong?" Mingyun sensed that something was wrong with her grandmother.

Mei Yingxue suddenly reached for her collar, her fingers trembling, and took off the necklace from her neck. "Yunyun, quick... take it."

On an ordinary rope, there is an oval pendant smaller than a fingernail.

The pendant is made of an unknown material; it is warm and smooth like jade, yet has a metallic luster.

Grandma never takes this necklace off.

Now it has suddenly been handed over to Mingyun.

"Grandma, why...why did you give it to me?" Mingyun asked. "It must be very important to you, right?"

"Take this, don't lose it."

Mei Yingxue didn't explain, but placed the necklace in Mingyun's palm and repeatedly warned, "Don't lose it."

Mingyun still wanted to ask more questions when suddenly, the sound of something breaking came from outside the bedroom door.

She quickly got up.

Pushing open the door, I saw my mother lying on the floor, her face contorted in pain, her hands covering her head, and glaring blood seeping from between her fingers…
